Does anyone know where i can find good tutorial videos? For some reason the ones here stop playing after a few seconds and wont download any further. Im NAVY and deployed on a ship. I don't have access to youtube.com and i think theres a problem with our server that won't let me download the entire video.
Is there anywhere else i can find these videos but in a different format like a .wav or another? Poi is really thing the only thing thats keeping me from cracking.

There are lots of sites out there
But I'm sure there will be a poi spinner along shortly to direct you a little better! Good luck

Dupes my companies security anyway...

One of the all time greats of the poi tutorial... live and on the net is Nick Woolsey. He has a great website at Playpoi with tutorials for all levels. His DVDs are worth getting too, available from HoP easy peasy.
